Direction: Identify the type of pronoun for the underlined words.Q.Who...
Answer:
The underlined word "whom" in the given sentence is an interrogative pronoun.
Explanation:
An interrogative pronoun is a pronoun that is used to ask questions. It is used to inquire about a person or thing. In the given sentence, the word "whom" is used to ask about the owner of the bed. It is a pronoun because it replaces the noun or noun phrase that would usually come after it. The pronoun "whom" is used when the person being referred to is the object of a verb or a preposition.
The other options, such as indefinite pronoun, demonstrative pronoun, and personal pronoun, do not fit the context of the given sentence.
- Indefinite pronoun: Indefinite pronouns are used to refer to non-specific or unidentified people or things. Examples of indefinite pronouns include "someone," "anyone," "everyone," "nobody," etc. These pronouns do not fit the context of the sentence as the question is specifically asking about the owner of the bed.
- Demonstrative pronoun: Demonstrative pronouns are used to point to specific people or things. Examples of demonstrative pronouns include "this," "that," "these," and "those." In the given sentence, the word "this" is not used as a demonstrative pronoun because it is not pointing to a specific bed. Instead, it is used as a determiner to indicate proximity.
- Personal pronoun: Personal pronouns are used to refer to specific people or things. Examples of personal pronouns include "I," "you," "he," "she," "it," "we," and "they." The word "whom" in the given sentence is not a personal pronoun because it is not referring to a specific person or thing, but rather asking about the owner of the bed.
In conclusion, the correct answer is option 'A' - Interrogative pronoun.
